Özet

OBJECTIVE: Recent studies have implicated increased oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of Ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Ischemia-modified albumin (IMA), an altered form of albumin, increases oxidative stress. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between IMA levels and other indicators of disease severity in AS.
